"Shameless!
Young Master Ye Yunfei is merely a junior! For so many True Manifestation Realm experts to join forces against him—it's unfair!" the Empress Dowager shouted.
"Hmph! Shut your mouth, wench! When is it your turn to speak!" A grey-robed elder swung his palm through the air from a distance.
Slap!
An immediate red and swollen palm print appeared on the Empress Dowager's face.
"It's fine. Today, let me properly witness the so-called experts of your great sects and great clans. I hope you won't disappoint me," Ye Yunfei said with a faint smile.
His words caused the expressions of all ten True Manifestation Realm experts to change simultaneously.
"Arrogant!" scolded the man whose entire body emitted sword radiance, with his scholarly temperament.
"You really are ignorant and fearless, brat Ye Yunfei," the white-robed elder shook his head slightly.
"Ye Yunfei, you've merely cultivated some elusive movement technique. Otherwise, your combat prowess would be insignificant in our eyes," the old man with three long strands of beard hanging down his chest said with a cold laugh.
"Ye Yunfei, you're dead by walking in here!" sneered the grey-robed elder.
The other True Manifestation Realm experts also looked on with disdain in their eyes.
"Array Activation!"
Suddenly, a robust, ruddy-faced old man shouted, rapidly casting dozens of spell signs as swift as lightning.
Boom boom boom...
One by one, large formations in the valley were continuously activated.
Surging formation pressure filled the entire valley.
Most of these formations were used to isolate or seal space. There were also a small number of Illusion Formations.
Clearly, these True Manifestation Realm experts intended to use these arrays to restrict Ye Yunfei's movement techniques. That elusive technique of his, which allowed him to vanish into space, was what troubled them the most.
As the arrays were activated one after another, the space within the valley seemed to solidify into a single iron plate—completely still. No air flowed, not even a trace of a breeze. Everything was fixed in place as if part of a painting.
"Haha, Ye Yunfei, let's see where you can escape to now!" the grey-robed elder immediately burst into wild laughter.
"Now, hand over the Tianying Clan's treasure immediately. Then, kneel and kowtow. Perhaps we might consider leaving your corpse intact," the grey-robed elder demanded in a domineering tone.
"Ye Yunfei, the space in this valley is now sealed. It's impossible for you to vanish into space anymore. Right now, you are weak as an ant before us!" the sword-radiant, scholarly man said coldly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
All ten True Manifestation Realm experts released their energy pressure. It surged skyward, shaking the entire valley.
They all watched Ye Yunfei with mocking gazes.
The terrifying energy pressure rushed toward Ye Yunfei like a tsunami.
"Ye Yunfei, you brat! To have ten True Manifestation Realm experts like us join hands to deal with you—you should be proud. Even in death, it would be an honor!" one of them said.
"Oh? You all think I'm weak, don't you? Unfortunately, I am stronger than you imagine."
As Ye Yunfei spoke these words…
Puff! Puff! Puff…
Streaks of red blood erupted from every single pore on Ye Yunfei's body.
This blood was pure Origin Essence Blood.
Transforming into thick clouds of bloody mist, it churned violently.
The blood mist blotted out the sky, carrying a nose-scorching stench of blood along with overwhelming ferocious aura!
The Origin Essence Blood Dissolution Great Art!
A forbidden secret technique of the Blood Clan, it could temporarily stimulate one's potential and enhance combat power.
Back in Yuanyue City, Ye Yunfei had once used this technique to kill the leader of the Yin Wind Mercenary Corps, Qiu Xuan.
Now, Ye Yunfei was wrapped in layers of mud-like bloody mist, emanating boundless and terrifying fierceness!
Next, Ye Yunfei took out a Spiritual Pill and popped it into his mouth, swallowing it.
Chaos Brute Force Pill!
A pill that could temporarily boost one's physical strength!
Ye Yunfei originally possessed around six hundred thousand jin of physical power. Now, after performing the Origin Essence Blood Dissolution Great Art and consuming the Chaos Brute Force Pill…
Boom! Boom!
Unbelievable power surged within Ye Yunfei's body. Continuous, torrential explosions rang out as his mighty physical strength climbed level by level, uncontrollably!
Immediately, the energy pressure released by the ten True Manifestation Realm experts toward him was completely scattered.
"Impossible!" The faces of the ten experts paled as they felt Ye Yunfei's violent physical power.
"Not good! We underestimated this brat's physical strength. Attack together and surround him! Don't let complications arise!" the white-robed elder roared.
Boom!
He struck first, sending a palm strike toward Ye Yunfei. The palm imprint grew with the wind, like a giant millstone rumbling toward Ye Yunfei.
"Come on, then!" Ye Yunfei let out a fierce roar. At this moment, unbelievable physical power surged through his entire body. Battle intent boiled in his chest, and all he wanted was a good, satisfying fight.
Boom!
Ye Yunfei threw a punch—no particular technique, just pure physical power—colliding head-on with the white-robed elder's palm.
Bang!
The white-robed elder was sent flying backward on the spot, spitting blood.
Six hundred thousand jin of physical power, plus the Origin Essence Blood Dissolution Great Art, plus the Chaos Brute Force Pill—it was enough to overwhelm an early-stage True Manifestation Realm expert!
"Be careful! His physical strength is too terrifying. Avoid direct clashes with him!" cried the old man with the three strands of beard.
"Can you avoid it?! Mountain-Passing Divine Strike!" Ye Yunfei bellowed, throwing a punch through the air toward that elder.
An invisible fist imprint, carrying terrifying energy, instantly arrived before the elder.
"How is this possible!" the elder's face showed utter disbelief.
Ye Yunfei was clearly still dozens of meters away from him, yet this ferocious fist force had instantly arrived before him. For Spiritual Qi-based martial skills to perform long-range attacks was normal. But Ye Yunfei was clearly using pure physical strength. Since when could physical strength attack from a distance?
In his shock, the elder channeled his Spiritual Qi, forming a cyan-colored fist imprint to block the incoming attack.
Boom!
Ye Yunfei's long-range fist force collided with the cyan fist imprint.
The cyan fist imprint immediately splintered into pieces and exploded with a bang.
That elder's figure was violently flung back; he almost vomited blood in anguish.
"Brat! Don't get cocky! I'll cut you down!" roared the robust, ruddy-faced elder as he rushed to Ye Yunfei's front.
He was a mid-stage True Manifestation Realm expert!
Roar!
That robust elder opened his mouth and emitted a thunderous roar.
Boom boom rumble…
Thunderclaps roared between heaven and earth. Streaks of lightning formed densely, each as thick as an adult's arm, carrying a destructive aura as they blasted toward Ye Yunfei.
"An expert of the Lei Clan!" Ye Yunfei sneered.
In the Eastern Region, only the Lei Clan was skilled at manipulating thunder and lightning.
